We've still got a couple of spots left if people are going to DiGRA and want to talk about teaching game studies.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Teaching Game Studies: DiGRA Edition
Sunday, August 3, 2014, 1:30-4:45pm
Organized by:
Mia Consalvo, Concordia University

This half-day workshop is a follow-up to the one held at the Foundations of Digital Games conference in April 2014. Following that workshop a report was released, including syllabi, course post-mortems and a synthesis of the discussion regarding challenges and opportunities related to teaching game studies courses. This workshop continues that discussion and focuses on the following:
*Sharing additional course experiences with new participants
*In-depth discussion of a variety of assignments and their structure
*Future projects or activities (creation of a network; special journal issue; book; more white-papers; etc.)
*Other topics as desired by participants
